Markus 8:33

8:33 But after turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan. You are not setting your mind on God’s interests, but on man’s.” ¹ 

Markus 9:31

9:31 for he was teaching his disciples and telling them, “The Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men. ²  They ³  will kill him, ⁴  and after three days he will rise.” ⁵ 

Markus 11:2

11:2 and said to them, “Go to the village ahead of you. ⁶  As soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there that has never been ridden. ⁷  Untie it and bring it here.

¹ tn Grk “people’s.”

² tn The plural Greek term ἀνθρώπων (anqrwpwn) is considered by some to be used here in a generic sense, referring to both men and women (cf. NRSV, “into human hands”; CEV, “to people”). However, because this can be taken as a specific reference to the group responsible for Jesus’ arrest, where it is unlikely women were present (cf. Matt 26:47-56; Mark 14:43-52; Luke 22:47-53; John 18:2-12), the word “men” has been retained in the translation. There may also be a slight wordplay with “the Son of Man” earlier in the verse.

³ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

⁴ tn Grk “They will kill him, and being killed, after…” The redundancy in the statement has been removed in the translation.

⁵ sn They will kill him and after three days he will rise. See the note at the end of Mark 8:30 regarding the passion predictions.

⁶ tn Grk “the village lying before you” (BDAG 530 s.v. κατέναντι 2.b).

⁷ tn Grk “a colt tied there on which no one of men has ever sat.”
